You can also go to the extreme of "jpeg over the wire". Your "web browser" could probably be implemented in <1000 lines of of code ;) No state, no cookies, no million lines of bundled JavaScript.
- someweirdperson 4y agoIf a "real" browser is used that needs javascript to request a jpeg of a size appropriate for the screen. There might be something that's good enough through css, not sure.
